Sacramentos

This is a dynamic, eclectic and upbeat collection designed to help multicultural communities celebrate the grace of God in the sacraments. Using an impressive variety of musical styles, Sacramentos offers songs for reconciliation, baptism, confirmation, marriage, funerals and quinceañera, as well as several psalm settings.

The 12 original compositions employ jazz, gospel and pop/rock styles, and several syncopated Latin rhythms, including salsa, bossa nova, cha-cha, bolero and others. Marked by excellent musicianship and great instrumentation, the recording builds layers of sound with guitars, horns, flute, keyboard and an array of Latin percussion and string instruments.

Sacramentos offers soulful music that draws the listener and the assembly into an authentic celebration of the transforming power of the sacraments. CD includes Spanish-only versions of five bilingual songs.
